How might our friendships shape our politics? This new book examines how contemporary American fiction - from Philip Roth to Dinaw Mengestu - has rediscovered the concept of civic friendship and revived a long tradition of imagining male friendship as interlinked with the promises and paradoxes of democracy in the United States.
